Hello Everyone. I am currently working on a project for my lab at school which will calibrate our collection electronics on a physics experiment. The apparatus emits low current(nanoamp or less range), and has typical pulse widths of roughly 10ms. In order to calibrate this I need to build a circuit that can produce these kinds of signals. I am assuming I need to use a current controlling DAC like the Maxim MAX5661 and filter it with some low pass op-amp circuits and then use a transformer to get the desired current. Everything on the microcontroller and digital side of the DAC I think I know what to do. However, if I am going to be putting out current signals with amplitude in the nanoamp range and hopefully resolution in the picoamp or better range, should I use a transformer to do this(I need to keep the noise out obviously)? If so, can anyone suggest a good source for a transformer like this (since the DAC works in the milliamp range I need something with a large ratio, like 10000:1 or better I suppose)? Also if anyone has any suggestions on how to transform the signal after it comes out of the DAC it would be much appreciated.
